What does it all mean? Archaeologists and other scientists think that the stone circles were places of worship and/or celestial observation. Whether the ancient Britons worshipped Celtic gods or sun gods or gods of their own description, they very likely used such henge and stone circle structures as focal points for this worship. Seeing such structures still standing today is proof that those structures were built to outlast the people who constructed them, as those people believed the gods they worshipped would do.
